The property is a beautiful old house in a delightful historic village. The owner has decorated it with taste and style and everything is of the finest quality. The owner also goes to a lot of trouble to make your stay comfortable, providing breakfast early for us before we headed to the airport and phoning the village pub to see if they had a table before our arrival. I couldn't recommend it highly enough - 10 out of 10 is just not enough!

One of our nicest stays ever
Or perhaps even the nicest. Fiona was such a welcoming hostess - she showed us the ropes straight away, had previously suggested where we might eat and told us about the shortcut into town. The house is really nice, very tastefully done up with superb views over Cromarty Firth. Our bedroom was lovely, well equipped with fruit and biscuits as well as tea and coffee and everything worked as it should. Breakfast the next morning was superb and we were given tips on points of interest for the next part of our tour. What more could one ask?
Our stay at the Factor’s House was a delight in every respect.

Fiona at Factor’s House could run a Master’s class on how to set up and run a B&B! Of all our stops on the NC500 tour, this was by far the best. The location is beautiful, set down a wooded lane and a short walk from the lovely village of Cromarty. The house is a quaint older home that has been beautifully and impeccablely restored! You are staying in a charming traditional B&B but one which is tasteful and and extremely comfortable as well.Fiona has thought of everything that you as a guest might want and need… and offers all in the highest quality. The common areas are beautiful as well and although there is no bar, Fiona offers an array of fine spirits ( at least 20 gins!) for her guests to make their own drinks at an incredibly reasonable price and based on the honor system. Unfortunately we came in a Sunday night and did not have an opportunity to enjoy her legendary 3 course dinner but we did enjoy the best breakfast of our trip in the beautiful wood paneled dining room. The scrambled eggs and cold and warm smoked salmon were outstanding…at the gourmet level as was the bowl of fresh fruit, coffee, croissants, etc that we were offered. This place was outstanding and must be the best value for money of any place in Scotland! We dream of one day returning but will definitely recommend to our friends and anyone else who may be traveling Scotland!

A stay to remember
Fantastic Stay at The Factors House over 3 nights. Our host, Fiona,was lovely. Very helpful with local tips and places to visit, a great cook with an amazing breakfast selection. Evening meal was sensational too. Room was very clean and tidy with a lovely big bath appreciated by my wife. Bed was very comfy and level of cleanliness was great. Do not hesitate to book.

The Fabulous Factor's House
The Factor's House, Cromarty is simply the most comfortable, calm and delightful place to stay. Everything speaks of peace and rest. The three-bedroomed house consists of lounge/bar, dining-room, two bedrooms upstairs and one downstairs.
Your hostess is there to ensure that your stay is easy. You can opt for dinner which is a set menu and excellent. Breakfast is a fabulous start to the day with a choice that you make the evening before.
Rooms are very comfortable and the best sheets are used.

A superbly kept residence of the highest standard. The food is just superb. Excellent wine selection and the bar in the lounge is exceptional for choice and quality. My advice is don’t miss out on the set menu meal it’s not to be missed. If you think it’s a bit expensive I can assure you the value vs quality equation is well surpassed. Local produce cooked with great skill by Fiona and in a lovely dining room. Breakfast was to the same high standard too
Will be back at some time in the future for sure.
If your doing the NC 500 it’s worth the 40 min detour to this lovely place and where else do you get to see an oil rig graveyard at the same time
